Wallpaper acts like Schrodinger's cat #11

Wallpaper animation works normally while viewing any application in the foreground, but if you view desktop, it will stop, just like Schrodinger's cat :smile:

@ShogunExecutioner yeah, the pause on fullscreen is experimental...sometimes that same problem occurs to me but then it will stop happening if I deselect "pause on fullscreen" and reselect it.

Also it doesn't work with multi-monitors, as in, if you have shaderwallpaper on screen 1 but maximize an app on screen 2 it will stop the shaderwallpaper on screen 1

Will keep working on it.

Wouldn't a more reliable method be to detect when compositing is disabled by a fullscreen program (e.g. games) while it is running and pausing the wallpaper?

@win8linux should work (better) now.
